Description

Agile is a phenomenal way of delivering value to the citizens we serve as a BC Public Service. If you’ve heard about the buzz, are interested in learning more, and want to see clear and practical examples of how these concepts are actually being put into practice, well you’ve probably come to the right place. The Queen’s Printer of BC has been applying principles of Agile across the organization in both technical and non-technical product development. This talk aims at giving some tips and tricks from the trenches for others who may be interested in moving down the path towards Agile implementation.
